Nepal avalanche leaves 2 dead, 14 missing
A snow avalanche on the summit of Himlung in Nepal has resulted in the deaths of at least two people and the disappearance of 14 others from the expedition team, including two mountain guides. The disaster swept through the main camp at an elevation of 7,126 meters, burying the tents under thick snow, which hindered rescue efforts that continued into Sunday evening. Harsh weather conditions and rainstorms are complicating search operations, amid ongoing efforts to recover from devastating glacial floods that have killed over 1,400 people and left more than 6,000 missing since last August.
